Hi,
Is anyone else attending a strike event today? It's essentially my worst nightmare but I feel so strongly about the issue that I have to at least try.
I would love to join the strike today. I should have looked ahead and booked a day off work to join one. My workplace is not taking part.
It was brilliant! I thought the crowds would be closer together but I stood on the periphery and even during the march it wasn't stressful. It's a shame more businesses and schools didn't close for the day but momentum is building. Lovely to see the children and teenagers making the sacrifices my generation should have.
That's great. something so worth doing. So so important. I'm sure if I was there in a crowd like that too, it wouldn't have bothered me too much either.
The bit I can't do is chatting to other people and visiting stalls - fills me with dread! Marching I could do all day!
